Good guy greg developers.
They re eating the loss of the cartridges instead of makeing excuses for why it costs more on switch.

To be fair, the amount of sales they'll generate from a Switch port will easily offset any of those losses.

Nice! Hopefully Japan will love this game being on a handheld like Minecraft on the Vita.

Not sure if I will buy it though. Got too many great games this year for the Switch.



Pocky Lover Boy! 

great. maybe i get it again just to play in my bed.



$20 game + $20 online for a year = $20 cheaper than getting it for "free" on another console lol.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.

What losses? This game has cost $20 since launch. It's a 2 year old game. If anyone doesn't have losses it's Psyonix.

That's a feature on all console version (at least). Not sure about PC.

Seems like Sony are being dicks and won't play the crossplay game with any platform other than PC. I don't like that move, Sony, and I hope you change your mind. Rocket league should be one global community (well regional, since people play on different servers).

Assuming the prting job is simple, which it should be. I can't see how Psyonix isn't going to make a tidy profit from that $20. In any case, Rocket League is well monetised with premium DLC content and I would think they make more money from the monetised content than the game sales these days. With a >10 million user base already their revenues must be weighted towards premium content now.
